pete_dushenski: isn't it incredibru how well-to-do smart people can still hold stupid opinions even within their own areas of expertise! but haooo!!!!
pete_dushenski: in other exquisitely refined contravex comments : "I find it fascinating that an otherwise intelligent person is unable to see the huge value of Facebook"
pete_dushenski: https://vimeo.com/101336844 << dunno why anyone would worry about thai succession. crown prince looks like a pimp. wife topless at dinner, 80's pop beats, good times. ☟︎
phf: ipad is the new linux on desktop!
pete_dushenski: for obvious reasons too. only terrorists (tm) swap parts, customise equipment.
pete_dushenski: the trend away from user meddling is pretty clear though
pete_dushenski: yea, newer mba requires whole laptop back case to be removed to replace battery. probably macbook pro too but i dun really keep up to date anymore
phf: i had that happen to me too by the way, it's my day to day 2011 macbook pro, and even the chassis got bent. all i had to do is order replacement battery and carefully apply a rubber mallet. good luck doing that on recent apple machine(tm)
a111: Logged on 2016-08-01 17:52 BingoBoingo: NO, targeted assasination attempt on a Lord of TMSR ☟︎
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-01#1512263 << still a few years away from this ☝︎
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-01#1512272 << heh no wonder you try 10000001 devices, you put them through gulags and then wonder why they shrivel and die (not that this isn't an excellent darwinian weeding out test) ☝︎
a111: Logged on 2016-08-01 21:46 mircea_popescu: "ferari better than maserati because 350 vs 320 written on odometer"
pete_dushenski: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-01#1512538 << more like written on price tag but same diff really ☝︎
pete_dushenski: ut in general, they will kind of talk you up. But then when you get up to the same level or maybe even higher, they get in attack mode; they are maybe not as supportive. I kind of felt that this time."
pete_dushenski: "I was actually happy to see the Hit King get defensive. I kind of felt I was accepted. I heard that about five years ago Pete Rose did an interview, and he said that he wished that I could break that record. Obviously, this time around it was a different vibe. In the 16 years that I have been here, what I’ve noticed is that in America, when people feel like a person is below them, not just in numbers b
pete_dushenski: http://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/the-lonely-ballad-of-the-mobile-lounge << in other phork news, the mobile airport lounges that never quite (ahem) took off.
mircea_popescu: da fuck dark irony is this, when's the last time the polish won anything.
asciilifeform: just lyin' there
asciilifeform: relatedly, i was looking recently at a house and landlord had petrol tank, disembodied, from airplane, and part of a wing
mircea_popescu: "ferari better than maserati because 350 vs 320 written on odometer" ☟︎
phf: i like how marlinspike's whisper is the secure alternative to telegram. every time i mention telegram in any tech venue there's always some clown going "use whisper instead telegram is insecure!!!", because in their heads whisper, running on a fully locked down platform, obviously is
asciilifeform: WHY are these jokers always so similar!?1
mircea_popescu: im pretty sure this one is from before.
asciilifeform: ahahahaha mircea_popescu 'killed' boeck, so guess who gets to be the new boeck, https://www.wired.com/2016/07/meet-moxie-marlinspike-anarchist-bringing-encryption-us
ben_vulpes: ie9 is alive and well among the shoe-purchasing, web-surfing population
asciilifeform: (whatever happened to that ?)
a111: Logged on 2016-08-01 21:09 mircea_popescu: if the trend of "smart phones for stupid people" continues a few years, banning mobiles from one's site will become a very respectable heuristic to ensure quality discussion.
asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-08-01#1512482 << recall when there was briefly a fashion for banning obvious microshit victims from one's site ? ☝︎
asciilifeform: i suspect they are penile-compatible!
asciilifeform: phf: try those things they make for the arm-less, to press with nose
asciilifeform: i can tell that mircea_popescu never answered mailz with one finger, of one hand, hanging from a rail, from a moving train, over 8kbaud modem...
mircea_popescu: time to de-vice yo.
mircea_popescu: neither is any item so far discussed! they're all vices.
ben_vulpes: i will not tap at screens anymore.
mircea_popescu: even I know what it is. enough to despise it.
mircea_popescu: "i tested 1001 devices, i don't know what gboard is"
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: if somebody sold a morse code arse muscle clenching-powered entry thing, i might test even that.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i've tested 1,001 devices
mircea_popescu: one day all the various dissonances will resolve spontaneously inside alf and the result will be audible
mircea_popescu: dude keeps derping about his ancient vintage quality kbd, then goes and fucks around on ipad "no feedback" glass jar.
hanbot: mircea_popescu is faking user agent beyond the ken of "stupid people"? moreover, there'll just be a mobile app for "not being mobile", what's this banning gonna achieve.
ben_vulpes: gboard mitigates the horrendity.
asciilifeform: (and has a primitive on-screen thing, ok for short text)
mircea_popescu: does your vibrating bullet also take external tracks + periscope ?
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: thing takes an external kbd
asciilifeform: on turdroid this cripplement is absent, but things go in opposite direction, battery is eaten by 1,001 mandatory background crapolade
asciilifeform: 'to prevent apps from eating the battery'
asciilifeform: i dug in, and turned up, iirc, that this is DELIBERATE
mircea_popescu: iirc apple still hasn't figured out the wonder of multitasking.
phf: asciilifeform: it's the weekly selection of article titles that are so dumb, there's no point in reading any further. content of article is literal elaboration of the title
mircea_popescu: if the trend of "smart phones for stupid people" continues a few years, banning mobiles from one's site will become a very respectable heuristic to ensure quality discussion. ☟︎
mircea_popescu: so they're stuck dicking around on capacitive displays
mircea_popescu: by now most of the cattle has been pushed out of the actual computing market through simple attrition - they can;t afford $500 for a computer, nor understand why it'd be useful, and the "smart" p[honme was free with their plan.
phf: "iPad-only is the new desktop Linux ios medium.com"
phf: trinque: it's truncated from the original, so i agree with asciilifeform or mircea_popescu it's either a very very lame hacking "attempt" or a troll
trinque: god, nsa has the same copypasta problems as any large american software firm!
asciilifeform: was a test.
asciilifeform: trinque: it is, as far as i can tell, a paste of a stock metasploit thing.
asciilifeform: 'dumb' as i understand, traditionally means battery life measured in ~weeks~
trinque: this thing is retarded
trinque: no URL there
asciilifeform: jurov: thread was about 'dumb' phones..
asciilifeform: modulus, note, happened 5 times, someone was testing whatever.
asciilifeform: i suspect that it was, precisely as mircea_popescu describes, low-effort - ~key gen~. which is to say, it was not meant, necessarily, to pop
mircea_popescu: likely explanation low effort trolling.
deedbot: [Qntra] Tree Nuts Liberated In California - http://qntra.net/2016/08/tree-nuts-liberated-in-california/
phf: i suspect it's an external url in either of those two pieces of obfuscated content, that base64 chunk or the x-imap4-modified-utf7 pieces
asciilifeform: all i see is the dropper
asciilifeform: phf: where is the payload though ?
asciilifeform: phf: i was reasoning from the fact that this pubkey does not appear to exist anywhere, publicly, other than phuctor.
phf: asciilifeform: it's an attack against a pgp key consumer with a specially broken viewer. userid in this case tries very hard to account for specific set of circumstances (i'm seeing 4 vectors so far), and we're only matching for one, specifically fact that ben_vulpes doesn't sanitize his html.
asciilifeform: ancient xss 0day ended up reencoded as pgp key userid field by cosmic rays, and submitted to phuctor also by cosmic rays ?
phf: there's nothing to support above statement
trinque: trying to jam some script into a background worker
asciilifeform: but i have nfi what the intended eater was.
phf: asciilifeform: pretty boring, since it's just "eating" whatever random tags are in that soup, bullet needs a special gun to fire, and wotpaste not it
phf: mircea_popescu: a lot of xss detection "solutions" rely on grepping for known bad input, like "script" or whatever. and there are ways to sidestep that, like '<scr' + 'ipt>' or a='ipt>';'<scr'+a. in this case whoever is fucking with detection by using this truly wtf feature i've never heard of, <meta charset="a">b</meta> that apparently parses b according to charset a rules ☟︎
asciilifeform: why it was necessary to put this in a strictly fermat-breakable artificial key, vs. some simple case of gcd or 8ball, i do not know - write to hitler and ask him, not me.
asciilifeform: 1) 'of course s.nsa uses some private wwwtronic thing to view results!1111' 2) 'of course it evals embedded crapola if we ask it!' etc.
asciilifeform: and the sheer monkey-assumption-sandwitch baked into this !!
asciilifeform: doesn't appear to be an sks key.
gribble: Error: We broke The Google!
mircea_popescu: rounded to the closest 3 it's 3!
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the total unique count (fermat with 10,000 iterations / modulus) is 2.
asciilifeform: https://github.com/danielmiessler/SecLists/blob/master/Fuzzing/JHADDIX_HTML5sec_Injections.txt << possibly from this.
trinque: ahaha is that xss?!
asciilifeform: trinque: read the link.
trinque: I'm not writing code to intelligently split lines based on whatever you decide to put in there
trinque: fucks sake what alf; you want me to somehow increase the length of IRC lines?
phf: oh that's beautiful ☟︎
asciilifeform: ^ who wants to take a stab at this gem ^

asciilifeform: (at least 1, per the mahmud thread)
asciilifeform: btw we dun have bbet but does anyone want to unofficially bet how many fermat bangs in 3518444 moduli ?
asciilifeform: cable comes with the thing ?
mircea_popescu: you missed the 5 dollar cable discussion ?
asciilifeform: 65g counting the brick ?
